Ab heute, den 30.10 ist der großartige DIO Track, in einer Version von LEROI XIII als digital Single überall erhältlich. Wichtig bei der Coverversion ist, dass 100 % der Einnahmen des Songs an den „Stand Up and Shout Cancer Fund“  weitergeleitet werden. Wendy Dio, die Ehefrau der 2010 viel zu früh an Magen-Krebs verstorbenen Metal-Legende unterstützt die Aktion und sagt:

“I am so pleased with this cover of ‘Stand Up and Shout,’ and I know Ronnie would be so honored.”
